I have had 3 different Moto G Power models with the g7 power, 2020 g power and the 2021 g power. All of them did everything I needed them to do and they were very reliable. Motorola is an underrated brand. People sleep on these phones but they are very practical and have useful features.

Good to see you again @SICKERIC 👍🏽Great content

[@albertballanger5611]

I like the phone that uses WiFi to make calls to my land line and not dependent on my signal from my cellphone carrier

[@uneek5336]

Hello thanks for the info want to know does it have a scanner and a magnifier?

[@jasonroberts8416]

The camera has a Scan option under the More section of the app and ive never used magnifier but when I search settings on the phone it has a Magnification setting under Accessibility with various magnify options.

This phone is pretty decent aside from low screen peak brightness and too little on software support. I don’t understand why Motorola keeps doing this with 1 OS and 3 years of security patches. They could easily have upped the support. And they probably could’ve made the display a pOled like with this year’s G Stylus 5g. But for the current $279 price on Motorola’s website, it’s not bad.

[@SICERIKTECH]

I don't understand why the only support 1 OS update. Maybe it's a regional thing, too many smartphones different variants of the same model IDK

[@jasonroberts8416]

yea It was 1 OS update and only 2 years of security when I bought the 2021 Stylus 5G (Rip already abandoned on the software side now) which sucks because the phone still works great.

[@DWtechfan]

@@SICERIKTECH I agree man. Can it really be that hard for Motorola to support the phone a few extra years? If they’re doing 1 OS, why not extend it to at least 3-4? If they’re doing 3 years of security patches, why not offer 4-5? Anything beats doing the same thing and showing no improvement when Samsung and Google easily beat them.

[@DWtechfan]

@@jasonroberts8416 it’s a real shame too. Motorola has recently started making better devices and stopped going backwards on specs. But they’ve shown no progress on software support. Motorola makes great devices but they can’t compete with other top smartphones if they don’t offer the support to do that.

[@SICERIKTECH]

@DWtechfan Over the years Motorola has been stepping it up on their smartphones. They have a chance to take LGs spot in the industry, they just need to work on updates

[@bowlofspiders]

I was able to get the 128GB / 8GB ram version of this phone for $150 through my carrier! Comes in the mail soon.

[@SICERIKTECH]

That's a great deal

[@allenblaine2793]

What are your thoughts on the Moto g stylus 2024 and then I know they're coming with the Motorola edge 2024

[@SICERIKTECH]

The G Stylus is probably the better buy right now. The Motorola Edge 2024 is coming on the 20th, to T-Mobile as well. I am excited for the new Edge, hopefully I can get one

[@allenblaine2793]

@@SICERIKTECH I still think Motorola slightly overcharges for the edge but it's kind of hovering around looking like 1 + 12R type rival, throwing the notification switch

[@allenblaine2793]

My honest opinion they should start out with the deal of 499 for the edge and keep it there for a little while and maybe take it back up to 550.00

[@jevonsims900]

Imho, Moto G Power 2023 is a better buy with 6/256gb for $200.00 new.

[@HashimVal.]

three cheers for budget devices!!!!

[@SICERIKTECH]

Thanks for watching

[@benjaminlee3669]

For the price, the Moto G Power 2024 offers incredible value. It's a great option for anyone looking for a reliable phone with good performance and long battery life. Dimensity 7020 is a nice addition.

[@APenguinRocket]

hmmm wondering if I should get this from Straight talk for $45 that unlocks after 60days. I still have a Metro Moto G Stylus 2023 that I like.

[@SICERIKTECH]

For $45 bucks? How? And Yes! 🤣

[@Bman-mh5gk]

Does this phone have the ready for connect feature?

[@SICERIKTECH]

No it doesn't, it does have the Ready for engines installed but the actual smart connect isn't

[@SICERIKTECH]

I might do a little tutorial on how to install

[@Bman-mh5gk]

@@SICERIKTECH that would be really cool! Would that work on other Motorola's?

[@Michele-wo5uy]

Stop saying budget device I came here bc it cost 300 initially but u got it for free stawp Killin my vibe

[@SICERIKTECH]

I got it for $200 on T-Mobile, my carrier 😄. IDK why there's such a price difference between TMO and Motorola

[@eprohoda]

Exc Review. Phone has good specs but moto drops the ball on software updates

[@SICERIKTECH]

Oh yeah, definitely! Thanks for watching
